A price drops from Rs. 200 to Rs. 150. What is the percentage decrease?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Given:
Original price = ₹200
New price = ₹150
Formula:
Percentage reduction = (Reduction / Initial price) × 100
Reduction = 200 − 150 = 50
Percentage reduction = (50 / 200) × 100 = 25%
